Creditors' Committees

The creditors’ committee is not just the voice of a bankrupt company’s unsecured creditors, but also the watchdog over the debtor. The successful representation of the creditors’ committee requires the ability to be both friend and foe to the debtor, and to present a credible threat of litigation on any issue. We have successfully represented creditors’ committees across the United States for over twenty years, in bankruptcy courts in Delaware, Illinois, Missouri, New York and Wisconsin. Our representations include both formal and informal committees, as well as pre-bankruptcy committees formed to negotiate prearranged or prepackaged Chapter 11 plans.
